The Grove by Blue Knight Rubber Stamps~

Hi guys!
Today I'm creating with The Grove by Blue Knight Rubber
Stamps.  It is a Newly released set.   The set is a landing
place for the silhouette images that Blue Knight
Rubber Stamps is famous for.  Perfect stamp for that!


The card on the left is created with Panpastels and the card
on the right is using Distress Oxide inks. After the backgrounds were
created the images were put on a stamping platform and added to the
card front. Other Blue Knight Stamps used were: Rear View Truck,
Birthday Fun and Cowboy Hero.  The cloud stencil was used on the
left card.  Dimensional adhesive was used by Scrapbook
Adhesives by 3L.

Creative Scrapbooker Magazine Winter Issue 2021 ~

Hi guys!
Sharing a card that was published in Creative Scrapbooker Magazine's
 Winter Issue.  I created with the Chickadee Stamp by
Blue Knight Rubber Stamps and AWESOME adhesive by
 Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.

This is a great magazine to curl up with and has loads of 
inspiration to get you creating scrapbook pages and cards.


The background is created using a 3-D Embossing Folder
by Sizzix/Tim Holtz.  It is called Lumber/662718.  It is stained
with Distress Oxide inks and adhered to the card front using
Crafty Foam Tape 108ft by Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.
The Chickadee is colored with Distress Oxide inks, cut
out and adhered to the card front.  Sentiment is stamped and
added with a small brad.


Thanks for stopping by~

Vintage Merchant Gift Tags with Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L~

Hi guys!
Today I'm sharing a fun project repurposing Merchant/Repair Tags
over on the Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L Blog.  I'm showcasing
their 3D Foam Adhesives. Perfect for this project!


The tags are 3 ply so you could use the inside, of the tags, for a
hand written note or stamp a sentiment.  The paper is thin so having
3 ply works great.  They make really fun Christmas Gift Tags.


These are the tags I created with. I used the front  and the back
of the tags to decorate. 


I have all the details on the Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L Blog.  I 
hope you will check it out.  Keep in mind any type of
ephemera that could be made into a tag would work and look
great!!!


Thanks for stopping by and I hope you enjoy this project using vintage ephemera.

Baseball/Softball by Blue Knight Rubber Stamps~

Hi guys!
Today I'm sharing two cards using the newly released
 Baseball/Softball Stamps by Blue Knight Rubber Stamps. 
  More awesome silhouette stamps to create with!! These are
 really fun to create with.


How cool are these stamps!! The fist one is the softball/girl stamp and
the second one the baseball/boy stamp. They come in  two sizes
so you will get four stamps in the set.  


I stamped the Old Glory stamp on white cardstock and
colored the flag with Distress Oxide inks.  The sentiment
is from the Zach and Marley set.  The Baseball/boy was 
stamped out using a stamping platform (so I could re-
stamp) getting a slid inked image.


This card has a mixed media feel to it.  I used stencils and
Distressed Oxide ink for the color.  The Softball girl was stamped
using a platform (so I could re-stamp) getting a solid
inked image.  I used Distressed Archival for the silhouette images.
 The stars are from the God Bless America set.  The sentiment is
word stickers. All adhesive is by Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.

Golf Course by Blue Knight Rubber Stamps ~

Hi guys!
Today I'm creating with the NEWLY released stamped called
Golf Course by Blue Knight Rubber Stamps.   This set
works so great with the GOLF set.  Check it out~



The top card is created using Distress Oxide inks, watered
down and treated like water colors.  I used the large boy 
golfer from the Golf set (covering up the golf bag) to have
room to add the matted silhouette golfer image.  The bottom
card is colored with panpastels and again I have added
the girl golfer making a putt.  The birds are from the Birds 2
set.
